The United Way of Dillon County serves Dillon, Latta, Lake View, and the surrounding areas.
The Dillon County United Way is a non-profit organization governed by a volunteer board of local community leaders.
Our Mission
The mission of the Dillon County United Way is to provide community leadership resource development to positively impact the needs of our community by strengthening relationships, programs and services that produce measurable results that improve the lives of our citizens.
At the Dillon County United Way, we feel that, at the end of the day, we are only successful if we can make a difference in people’s lives and improve their quality of life. Because you and others in the community choose to support the United Way, we, together are creating a better, stronger community for all of us. No other single unified effort does more for our community than the United Way.
Why? Because together we can do so much more than any one of us could do alone.

This network is unique to our organization, and we refuse to take it for granted. We are driven by the hopes and dreams of our community. By supporting the Dillon County United Way, you are helping those in need to become true survivors. You can see the results in your own backyard.
We’ve had major disasters over the past few years, which have taxed all of us. Our citizens have stepped up to the challenge and given generously to meet the needs of our community. However, due to your generous giving to disasters, our local United Way contributions have gone down over the years.
All gifts/contributions are welcome and stay in Dillon County. Would you be interested in finding out more about a workforce campaign? A workforce campaign is about more than raising money for worthy causes; it also strengthens connections between your employees and their community. We would count it a privilege if you would allow us to speak with your organization about the benefits of partnering with the Dillon County United Way.
